This 'stuff' is uploaded to youtube constantly. Youtube has *incentivized* people to upload. Yes, you can get paid for uploading content to youtube. Of course youtube catches you doing anything, youtube does not want done, youtube will remove your content and when you repeat remove your account. Etc Etc.

I think this is a GREAT idea. With it comes some responsibility to protect yourself. Like wearing a seat belt. Driving you car is more dangerous than operating this website.

Legal notice must be given by a 3rd party that you are using their stuff. Email is not legal notice, a phone call is not legal notice, neither is a letter in the mail. However, I would make sure I checked my email, answered the phone and read all my snail mail, just to keep the legal fees down.
Personally, if it is not certified mail or a process server sends it to me. I pretty much ignore it as legal notice.

Nothing I have read in this thread would lead me to think that this is not a great idea.

The point is keep up the good work on this awesome site.

Thanks for the feedback. I am in the process of getting my legal stuff in order, so I have that added layer of protection as you mentioned.
